Chapter 578: Determined not to speculate in stocks
"Elder Christo, today you..."
As soon as he stepped into Christo's house, Laigat, who looked sad, spoke directly, but when he saw the old face and white hair under the hood, he closed his mouth again.
"well……"
Christo did not respond immediately, but sighed and walked slowly towards the dining room area. His eyes fell on a chair made of walnut wood, and his eyebrows twitched. The chair had a backrest and armrests.
But both the armrests and the chair legs are spiraled into small balls, while the chair legs are in the shape of swirls, and the natural textures in brown or black add to the simple texture.
He walked to the chair and sat down, his head lowered, his long white beard spread flat on his black robe, and an aura of decay spread from his body.
Laigat also sighed, turned around, closed the door, and sat on another chair with a strange shape but unique beauty, and also fell into silence.
Ten minutes later, the still younger Elder Laikat couldn't bear it any longer.
"Elder Christo, we can pray to Rawls for help. Although he is only Sequence 4 now, he can already enter the temple. Maybe he can solve your problem?"
Because of the problems caused by his early promotion, Christo's lifespan was greatly reduced, and in recent months it looked like it would end at any time.
"If he could solve it, then he should have... haha..." Christo shook his head, "What's more, we are asking for help from him now, aren't we?"
Laigat frowned, his words sounded like a complaint, and then he felt a little helpless. He had seen the demigods in the clan whose life span was exhausted because they could not be promoted, which was not much different from that of Christo now.
"Then let's make an exchange first. I will guard the family secret room, and you go to Silveras County first. It's very safe there and you don't need to worry too much."
After nearly a year, the Tamara family has stabilized in West Veras County. On the contrary, because the family secret room has lost the protection of the "Uncertain Mist", sealed objects often get out of control.
"I don't want to leave here." Christo raised his head, rubbing the armrest of the chair, his voice was old and low.
Laigat tried to persuade him a few more times, but when he saw Christo insisting, he had no choice but to give up, turned around and left, returning to his home.
…
"Are you sure you want to do this? Although Alicia said so in the letter, it is not clear whether MI9 has other methods? What if there is some way to confirm that this matter is related to you?
What to do? Even if not, if a headquarters employee is missing, there will definitely be an internal investigation..."
Forsi was wearing a home dress, holding a black formal jacket in one hand, and the "Travel Notes to Manno" in the other hand. She was pacing back and forth around Xiu who was changing clothes and chanting.
In her opinion, it is still too risky for Xio to pretend to know nothing and go to MI9. Even if she takes "Lai Manno's travel notes", there is no guarantee that she will be able to escape. After all, as a Sequence 6 "
"Judge" Hugh can ban the transmission, let alone the MI9 headquarters where demigods exist?
The "journey" recorded in the notebook is only one page, and as long as the transmission fails due to slight interference, there is nothing that can be done.
"Although it is the headquarters of MI9, from my experience of working there for several months, their work efficiency is not that high. It is hard to say whether anyone has been found missing. What's more, even if they are found, they
The suspects should also be outsiders, spies from other countries, etc. The probability of insiders being scrutinized is very low."
Xio shook her arm to let the rolled-up sleeves recover. The muscles on her face in the mirror began to squirm and became more mature. She probably looked like she was in her early thirties. The joints and ligaments in her body were crackling, and her whole body was taller than ten years.
About centimeters, the waist becomes slimmer.
The change in height made her clothes fit better. She buttoned up the black vest buttons one by one, and reached out to take the black formal jacket from Forsi. She was not wearing the knight training uniform as usual, but
I chose the most common attire of MI9 members, which is also the attire of most Backlund men.
This is also a suggestion from Fors. With the advantage of "vampire human skin" that can change the appearance and body shape, the most ordinary dress is the safest.
After stuffing the "Travel Notes to Manno" and his mask into his pocket, Xio looked at Forsi who looked worried and said:
"Are you really not planning to leave Backlund?"
If Xio is caught, Forsi will definitely be noticed, but if he can leave as soon as possible and go to other countries or go to sea, the probability of not being caught is still very high.
"Don't worry, I won't notify you if I want to run away." Forsi rolled his eyes at Xiu angrily.
…
Thirty or forty minutes later, Xio stepped into the already familiar MI9 headquarters with some anxiety. After finding that everything was normal, he breathed a sigh of relief and returned to his office to start working.
In order to prevent what happened yesterday from happening again, and to prevent people who may be paying attention secretly, she did not plan to solve the negative effects of "Vampire Human Skin" in the headquarters today, but planned to persist until the afternoon and find an excuse to get off work early and go home.
.
Maybe she had too much work yesterday, but today's workload has been reduced a lot, so she doesn't have to worry about her excuses being discovered.
When it was almost noon, Xio put down her work and went to the restaurant where the "Church Comprehensive Affairs Processing Team" was located for dinner. This was a bit risky. Middle-level people like her who already had the rank of major had their own offices, and they often had their own offices.
They all dine alone.
However, after arriving at the restaurant, Xio felt that her move was not very risky. She saw several team captains like her dining at the same table.
After seeing Xio, the team captains, although a little strange, still waved to her and said:
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Captain Wall, do you want to come with us?"
"OK."
Xio didn't refuse. She first asked for a lunch specially provided for squad leader level, then walked to the dining table and sat down with it.
Although the Church of the Goddess of the Night has made great contributions to promoting women's work, allowing women to be represented in male-dominated professions such as the police, there are still very few women in MI9, and most of them are spies.
And intelligence personnel, very few can reach the middle level, not to mention this is the headquarters.
Therefore, although Captain Wall has a vicious reputation, he is still a popular target.
There was a reason why these team captains gathered together to communicate. Not long after their boss, Brigadier General Jordi, arrived in the Southern Continent, a telegram was sent, reporting the local army commander's refusal to obey orders.
Then Gutierrez, deputy director of the major general and leader of the action team, said that this was a task that should have belonged to his team. Now that the comprehensive team has not handled it well, he can go to the southern continent as quickly as possible to take over the task. This got him
The three leaders of the Secretary Team, the Personnel Team, and the Sealed Artifact Team, as well as the support of the Deputy Director.
Fortunately, Brigadier General Jordi assured in the telegram that he could complete the task, and coupled with the insistence of the director of the department, Mr. Selter, the task was not handed over.
But this has caused the comprehensive team that has no leader for the time being to suffer a lot recently and has been restricted in all aspects. Originally, their team leader was at the first level compared to other team leaders, let alone their deputy team leader.
After listening to the complaints from several team leaders, Xio returned to his office briskly.
…
In the hotel near the Church of the Eternal Sun in the Southern Continent, West Balam, Lapu City.
"If the evil spirit of the 'Red Angel' could control '0-08' by possessing Ince Zangwill, it would be too troublesome. A top 'conspirator' could make up a perfect plan without any flaws.
The story, and even the information we have now, is what the other party is willing to let us know."
Azik Eggers, who was sitting on the single sofa, rubbed his eyebrows, his aged eyes full of fatigue.
Klein also feels this way. They have a lot of information, but this information is like a fog, obscuring the real answer. For example, he still doesn't know what the "Immortal King" wants to do and what he relies on.
What can make him qualified to face the "King of the Five Seas" who has been promoted to an angel?
Unless the support behind him can kill Nast, even if he has an angel as a support, he will not be able to be the same as before. Otherwise, there is no need for Lieutenant General Disease and Lieutenant General Iceberg to come who also have angels behind him.
They waded into troubled waters this time because they knew that Nast's power was at sea, and the forces behind them would not invest too much power in the sea.
"No matter what, Dai Li's problem here has been solved, and the rest can be left to the 'Eye of the Goddess' Yin Liya. Next, we can focus all our energy on Ince."
Talking about Daly, Dunn Smith had a smile on his face.
"Then you won't stay and protect Ms. Dai Li secretly?"
Facing the captain, Klein can still gain some verbal upper hand.
Although Dai Li and Leonard's team have investigated clearly, they will definitely have to stay here for a while.
Dunn smiled bitterly and shook his head:
"She's pretty good at protecting me, but she's recognized by '1-93'."
"I almost forgot about this..."
Klein also smiled and shook his head. It seemed that it would be difficult for the captain to surpass Ms. Dai Li in the future.
Azik, who looked at the two of them with a smile, suddenly said:
"You guys go ahead. I remembered something again and may need to delay for a while."
Upon hearing this, Klein and Dunn looked at each other and were about to speak when Azik waved his hand to stop them.
"Don't worry, it's just a small matter this time. It can be handled in two or three days. If you encounter danger, just write to me and I will be there in a minute or two."
…
After Mr. Azik left, without waiting for Klein to ask, Dunn said in a deep voice:
"Except for finding relevant clues about Palenque Tasib, we didn't gain anything else this time. As for what Mr. Azik remembered..."
At this point, he sighed. Klein also understood this. Who else but Mr. Azik himself could know?
After a moment of silence, the two began to discuss the plan to investigate Ince Zangwill with the map.
"...I think we should start from Uttar Pradesh." Dunn pointed to the location on the map, "Not to mention that the conflict between the 'Immortal King' and the pirate general is likely to be in the nearby waters, which is far away from the colony of Intis.
It’s not that far away. The scope of the previous tracking investigation by Mr. Azik and I is right there, and there are quite a few Beyonders on the ‘Hunter’ path.”
Uttar Pradesh is located to the west in the north of the Southern Continent. To the east is the Intis Colony, where the famous Caesar Port is located.
"As for Tony Twain, no matter what, he is still a Sequence 3 'War Bishop'. Even without the help of the army, he will not be easily solved. The real target of the 'Red Angel' evil spirit may not be him."
After careful discussions, the peculiarities of Uttar Pradesh emerged as the most suitable location for investigation.
"...But before I go, I need to find a 'Secret Puppet'."
Klein pinched the corners of his eyes, feeling a little helpless. A "Secret Puppet Master" had no secret puppets, and his combat effectiveness could be imagined. He didn't want to look for them in Uttar Pradesh. The Extraordinary appearing there would most likely cause problems, and he didn't want to.
Imagine being like Anderson and accidentally offending a demigod.
As for early intelligence gathering, Daniz can be sent there just in time. He is near Uttar Pradesh, and as he is only Sequence 7, he will not attract the attention of the "Red Angel" evil spirit.
"'Secret Puppet'?" Dunn thought for a moment, then straightened his back, "I have a suitable target. He is from the Rose School. Mr. Azik said he was a 'winner'. At that time we
The target was not him, but he sensed it and ran away first, but he should still be nearby."
"Winner"?
Klein's eyes lit up. This was a good target. He should have defected from the School of Life and treat it as helping Will Asceptin clean up the family. By the way, she should be born soon, so she should treat it as a birth gift.
!
Just as he was about to nod, an illusory and overlapping sound of prayers came to his ears.
A man's voice?
Is it Mr. "Emperor"?
Klein's heart tightened, he covered his lower abdomen and said:
"Okay, captain, please go and investigate for me first. I need to go to the bathroom now."
After saying that, he rushed into the bathroom nearby and closed the door.
Dunn was stunned for a moment and said to Klein in the bathroom:
"Then I'll leave first."
After a low-pitched response full of pain, he shook his head, became transparent, and disappeared into the room.
…
Above the gray mist, Klein sat at the top of the long bronze table and looked at the crimson star that was constantly expanding and contracting.
It is indeed Mr. "Emperor"!
He first stretched out his hand to summon the "Poseidon Scepter", and then put the "Tyrant" card into his spirit body. Suddenly, an extremely majestic and terrifying aura emanated from the location of "The Fool", and there was no sound above Klein's head.
Wuxi gained a deep triple crown, and his clothes turned into religious robes.
After gaining enough confidence, he once again turned his attention to Mr. "Emperor"'s prayer scene and observed it carefully.
